Split Phase Motor

Split Phase Motor: When a motor is provided with two windings, even though these are excited from the same voltage (supply being single-phase), the currents in the two windings can be made out-of-phase by adjustment of the impedance of the auxiliary winding in relation to the main winding. As a result F̅m and F̅a constitute an unbalanced […]

Single Phase Two Winding Motor

Single Phase Two Winding Motor: Single Phase Two Winding Motor – To understand the field phenomenon that contributes towards the generation of starting torque in a single-phase motor, it greatly helps to first study a balanced 2-phase motor. Figure 10.10 shows a 2-winding squirrel-cage motor whose stator winding axes are in relative space phase of

Single Phase Induction Motor

Single Phase Induction Motor: A Single Phase Induction Motor comprises a single-phase distributed winding on the stator and normal squirrel-cage rotor as shown schematically in Fig. 10.1 wherein for convenience the stator winding is shown in concentrated form. There are two important methods of analyzing this motor, namely Cross-field theory and Rotating field theory. As
